Definder - what does the word mean?

What is flew too close to the sun?

Being overconfident and reckless. Not knowing your limits. The phrase comes from the tale of Icarus, a young man who flew too close to the sun and fell from the sky when his wings melted. It's a tale of caution, warning us to remember our limitations.
